They say don't go on the Wolverton Mountain<br />
If you're looking for a wife<br />
'Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty young daughter<br />
He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife<br />
<br />
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br />
And the Wolverton Mountain protects her there<br />
<br />
The bears and birds tell Clifton Clowers<br />
If a stranger should wander there<br />
All of my dreams are on the Wolverton Mountain<br />
I want his daughter for my wife<br />
<br />
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br />
And the Wolverton Mountain protects her there<br />
<br />
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br />
And the Wolverton Mountain protects her there<br />
<br />
The bears and birds tell Clifton Clowers<br />
If a stranger should wander there<br />
All of my dreams are in Wolverton Mountain<br />
I want his daughter for my wife<br />
<br />
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br />
And the Wolverton Mountain protects her there<br />
<br />
I'll take my chances and climb that mountain<br />
Though Clifton Clowers, he may take my life<br />
I'm going up on the Wolverton Mountain<br />
It's too lonesome down here below<br />
<br />
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey<br />
And Wolverton Mountain protects her
